I always find novelists, particularly sff novelists, to be laughably bad at writing about music. It's history, geography, psychology, and its own thing all wrapped up in one; do your research or don't write it. The idea that on a distant future planet, the only surviving music from Earth would be Gregorian chant and grindcore or that their appeal would map so easily to modern-day Westerners' taste is incredibly dumb.
